Chapter 17
At the Fair
By Majhica Santose and Pence Auryion

"Muggle fair! Muggle fair!" yelled Maj and Pence, running into the boy's dorm.
"Well Maj, I knew you'd come around," said Sirius with an evil grin, as Maj sat on his bed.
"Ew, God…" Maj said, and then moved to her boyfriend's trunk.
Pence went over and started stroking Remus's hair as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes.
"Alright boys," said Maj, jumping on Peter's bed because he wouldn't get up, "Get up, get dressed, get the invisibility cloak and map, then we're out of here."
Pence started jumping on James's bed as he wouldn't get up either, maybe because he was hoping Pence or Maj would jump on his bed.
"A muggle fair, eh? Alright, come on, don't want to lose any time!" said Sirius. Pence and Maj walked out the door to go get ready.

"Yes, Maj is upstairs fixing her hair…again." said Pence as the boys came down the stairs. Just then, Maj came sliding down the banister,
"Let's go, before we get caught!" she said.
Because all six of them couldn't go at once, James, Pence, and Remus went down, then James came back for Peter, Maj, and Sirius. They all transformed, so they could go quicker, so there was a small fox on the back of a dog, and a rat running under a deer. They decided to use a passage that was known by Filch because it'd be faster. They were almost at the exit, when Filch came. They should have used the Shrieking Shack entrance. They made a break for it and got out just in time, though Pence was sure they were spotted, seeing how they transformed to humans in a thought of safety. Nonetheless, that couldn't stop them now.
"Come on babe," Sirius said to Maj ten minutes later as he helped her into the Whomping willow.
"Kay, it's about an hour's drive with muggle speed limits…"
"But we're not gonna use them, are we?" asked Maj.
"It's us…do you really think we will?" James said.
"You know…I could drive…" Pence said, "as long as there's no sharp turns or backing up involved…"
"No, I'll drive," Remus said, "You'd kill us all…"

"Maj, come on! I wanna ride this one first!" said Sirius, dragging Maj to a roller coaster. When they got off, (two hours later…) Remus, Pence, Peter, and James had already been on three other roller coasters, two water slides, and half a 'Trash' concert.
"Big wheel!" said James as they neared the Farris Wheel.
"Let's go!" said Pence, as she ran of to the concession stand with Remus.
"Everything smells like funnel cake, it's gonna make me sick." said Remus, taking a drink of soda.
"Yea, I have this theory that everything here is made of funnel cake batter…even the soda!" said Pence. Maj came running up behind them,
"Fwah! Let's go on the Farris wheel, I got funnel cake to throw at people!"
"Yay!"

"This is cruel and ironic!" Pence exclaimed as she looked at the wolf plushie Remus handed her. She paused before saying, "What should I name it?"
"Snuffles." said Sirius instantly.
"Okay!" Pence said, hugging 'Snuffles'.
"Snuffles?" asked Maj, giving Sirius a look.
"Yea…see, when I was seven, there was this stray dog that would sit on our steps every morning. His collar said 'Snuffles' on it. But then my bastard of a brother told my dad about him, so one morning my dad poisoned the dog's food. It was sad…So Snuffles will be forever commemorated by a plushie!"
"He tried to make 'Snuffles' his nickname back in our fifth year once he learned his animagus was a dog, actually…" said James, with a reminiscing look, "But we told him no."
They walked along, going on rides and playing games as they went. They all stopped at a ring-toss booth because Sirius wanted to win something for Maj. He paid the man running the game some muggle money, and in return was handed 3 rings. Sirius tossed one of the rings, but it bounced off the tops of the bottles. He did this until he had gone through 14 rings, and almost all of the money. Finally, on his 15th ring, he stepped into the booth, and carefully put the ring on one of the bottles, and then demanded a prize. The man running the game looked livid, but decided to give Sirius a prize so he would leave. Sirius grinned as he handed Maj a big, stuffed pink and green dog, which she named Summer.
 The drive back to Hogsmede was full of yelling at random people, throwing things out of the windows, and a conversation about chickens. They arrived at Hogwarts around four-thirty. That Saturday, no one seemed to notice they were gond.
